Old to new - sunglass pouch

Have an old t-shirt that still has a cute print or picture? Recycle you old clothes to fun new accessories or whatever your creative minds can come up with. Here's what I did~

I took an old t-shirt that had these cute strawberries on them!


I then added some other scraps of fabric laying around and ribbon.
And vwa-la! A sun glass pouch for my little sisters birthday! And I even included a homemade card in the shape of sunglasses for her!
The possibilities are endless! Coin purses, pouches, accent pillows... you can add an embellishment to anything!

Here's some other ideas from Marthastewart.com for recycling clothing~
